Description:
The “Chablis” appellation is the most extensive of the whole Chablis area. Growing in the renowned Kimmeridgian soil on slopes along both sides of the River Serein, the “Chablis” vineyards give wines that are the indisputable representatives of the real Chablis style. The terroir here brings freshness, a mineral edge, finesse and complexity. Depending on the vinification, the wine can be drunk young, one to three years old, when it has a refreshing quality; or between three and eight years for wines coming from old vines, when they will possess much more complexity, with a mineral touch and richness of aromas.
Very pale green-coloured wine. Brilliant aspect.
Fresh bouquet; honeysuckle to start then evolving
towards orange.
A flavour of lime dominates the tasting, giving this wine
instant freshness.
This refreshing quality is quickly counterbalanced by a
pleasant bitterness along with conspicuous saltiness,
indicating the authentic Chablis origin.
The finish is prolonged by lingering notes of citrus peel.
A fresh, young wine to appreciate today - as an aperitif or
with seafood.
After a few months cellaring this wine will become less
feisty and will accompany any grilled fish.
